"An it's not just temporary aswell, look at Truebridge, he has taught History of Magic, DADA and now Ancient Runes I wonder if you have to be able to teach more than one subject to work here?" It wouldn't be a stretch to imagine, all the teachers were more than capable wizards, teaching a different form wouldn't be all that hard!
Turning his brain power back to the stars, Patroclus peered through his lens to find a constellation when Sophie seemed to have found one first!
Jumping up he moved over to her telescope and gazed through it,
"Ahh I see it! It has almost a W like shape!" Listening to his co-prefects next question, Patroclus had to nod
"Ah yes, Queen Cassiopeia, the vain queen who though her beauty was unrivaled and who got herself killed by Perseus and his Medusa head!"
Scribling the time down, Patroclus saw how late it was becoming, which meant that the stars would be easier to see now!
Sophie wasn’t a cheese person but when Patroclus ate some brie it looked really tasty. Taking a piece of bread the brunette put on a brie slice of her own. Taking a bite of the cheese her eyes watered and she exclaimed
"The cheese is too strong." Wiping her eyes with a napkin the prefect removed the cheese and ate the rest of the bread with marmalade on it. Sophie listened as Patroclus listed the professor’s who had been subbing in other subjects during the term. Smiling she said
"I almost forgot Professor Vindictus but I must say that he has had some interesting herbology lesson. I wouldn’t mind if he taught it next year too." At the gossip/rumour about the other herbology professor, Mugwort had been eaten by a man eating plant the prefect frowned
"Does anyone believe in what the aparecium cooks up? I highly doubt anyone would be eaten by a man eating plant her at Hogwarts."
Professor Truebridge was mentioned as an example of a chameleon professor whom had taught a series of different subjects through his staff position at the school. Sophie didn’t think that was odd considering that all members of the school staff had to be highly competent in more than just one area.
Right, back to the stars or they would never get done!
Taking up her observation parchment Sophie wrote:
Finishing her notes she looked over at Patroclus
"It’s your turn to find a constellation!"
